namespace prefix for http://purl.org/dc/terms/

[marioscrock]

In a project using Widoco to generate documentation of vocabularies, we received an issue on prefix usage for http://purl.org/dc/terms/, cf. issue mobilityDCAT-AP/controlled-vocabularies#30

Regarding Widoco, @heidivanparys pointed out that dc: is used in the provenance files generated by Widoco and this may be confusing as usually this prefix is used for the /elements/ namespace. Indeed, also the Widoco metadata guide defines it like this.

Widoco/doc/metadataGuide/guide.md

Line 15 in 5d9b0e7

|dc |[http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/](http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/) |

I checked the source code, and it seems that the prefix is determined here. If you agree @dgarijo, I can make a Pull Request to update it as dct:.

Widoco/src/main/java/widoco/Constants.java

Line 1223 in 5d9b0e7

+ "@prefix dc: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> .\n"

Thanks, yes please do the PR and I will merge. I am pending a key release (prepared a milestone) due to lack of time, but that PR may be part of that release. El jue., 18 sept. 2025 2:23 p. m., Mario Scrocca ***@***.***> escribió:
